Snagem Hideout (Japanese: スナッチ団のアジトTeam Snatch Hideout) is a location in Orre. It is, quite obviously, the main base of the criminal syndicate Team Snagem. According to an early news report in Pokémon Colosseum, it is located in a part of Orre known as Eclo Canyon.

At the start of Pokémon Colosseum, the base is partly destroyed by Wes in a series of explosions, destroying a large Snag Machine and wrecking much of the base. Gonzap's office seems to be the least affected area. Later in the game, some remnants of both Cipher and Team Snagem, as well some other Trainers, gather at the Hideout. A ShadowSmeargle and a Shadow Ursaring can be snagged here from two Team Snagem members after defeating the boss of Cipher.

In Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, the Snagem Hideout is still in severe disrepair from Wes's sabotage five years ago, but is still in use by Team Snagem. Michael goes here to retrieve his Snag Machine from Gonzap after it gets stolen from him by Snagem members.

Story

The player goes to the hideout after receiving intelligence regarding its location from Hordel, with the intent of retrieving his stolen Snag Machine. After walking through the entrance, he is attacked by Agrev, who wants to see if the player has what it takes to join Team Snagem. As the player progresses, he finds that Team Snagem is holding a recruitment drive to find new members and restore Team Snagem to its former glory.

As the player approaches Gonzap's office, he battles another returning Snagem member from Colosseum; Biden, who was one of the members the player at the ruins of the S.S. Libra. After defeating him, the player proceeds to the office, where he overhears Gonzap yelling at Wakin, complaining the Snag Machine is too small to fit his large arms. The two soon notice the player, and Wakin attacks. After fending his crony off, an impressed Gonzap tries to recruit the player into Team Snagem to take on Cipher together. He reveals his plan was to steal all of Cipher's Shadow Pokémon, causing it to collapse. When the player refuses, Gonzap offers to give back the Snag Machine if he can beat him.

The player defeats Gonzap, and as promised, the head of Team Snagem returns the Snag Machine to him, concluding that the two of them are fighting for the same goal. He also gives the player a key, which unlocks an item chest containing TM30 (Shadow Ball).

Post-story

The Snagem Hideout can be entered two ways after the main story: through the hole in the front left wall or through the main entrance. Inside the building is an assortment of debris presumed to be from Wes' activities several years earlier. Entering through the main entrance the player is met by Agrev who mentions that Gonzap and Wakin came back but left again without informing him where they were headed. Past Agrev and to the right is a room with a Healing Machine in it and the door to continue on. Going through this door leads the player to an item box and the staircase to the second floor.

On the second floor going south from the stairs, the hall forks. To the right leads the player to a set of stairs going back down and to the south leads to a staircase to the third floor.

Back on the first floor one finds a hallway going to the front of the building, a staircase back to the second floor and an item box behind that staircase. Following that staircase leads to what once was Gonzap's office but is now abandoned and an item box.
On the third floor are three Trainers and two item boxes and eventually back to the left entrance to the Snagem Hideout. On the way back outside there are three Trainers and two item boxes.

Trainers

The trainers encountered may have Shadow Pokémon if the player failed to capture one before. Biden and Agrev have new Shadow Pokémon.

The following Cipher Peons appear when you cross the threshold between the PC room and room leading to the stairs. They will stop appearing once you have snagged their Shadow Pokémon and beaten all of them once.

Trainers with a Poké Ball by their names may be challenged for a rematch after defeating certain bosses. In a rematch they may have higher-level Pokémon, and any Shadow Pokémon previously caught will be replaced.

These four trainers will appear once you get the e-mail from Bitt informing you about the Shadow Ursaring and Smeargle. Once you've defeated them, and snagged their Pokémon if you missed them the first time, they will disappear.
